Rubio spent a life in politics trying to get at the big kids table by talking tough about Russia and democracy, then chose to implement an autocratic Kremlin playbook so he could fly around on a nice plane and have people be nice to him. Perhaps even more shameful than Trump and Vance.

NASA is not for sale.
The Post Office is not for sale.
America is not for sale.

‘Big Boys’ creator Jack Rooke: ‘A lot of comedy writers talk to me through gritted teeth’ As the beloved BAFTA-winning sitcom’s emotional third and final season airs on Channel 4, Rooke discusses mixing high and low culture, his next projects and being darkly funny about grief.

Milton was way ahead of us on the duality of man that Trump is on the wrong side of: “But lest his heart exalt him in [having] dispeopled Heav’n…I can repair / That detriment…and in a moment will create…out of one man a race / Of men innumerable” (7.150-56) #FightBack

I think Trump is now a problem for Netanyahu because he's saying the quiet bit out loud. How can their hostages be returned now the threat of ethnic cleansing is officially on the table?

Thanks for your trust in me guys 🙏🏽

Very proud to be among this super-talented bunch of East Midlands writers. It’s not so grim up north eh? 🏹
